Space-Time Resource Integrated Optimization Method for Time-of-Day Division at Intersection Based on Multidimensional Traffic Flows

Based on the change trends of traffic flow in different controlled directions at an intersection, the space-time resource integrated optimization method for TOD (time-of-day) division based on multidimensional traffic-flow data is proposed in this paper. By analyzing the traffic-flow data of 8, 4, 2...

description Based on the change trends of traffic flow in different controlled directions at an intersection, the space-time resource integrated optimization method for TOD (time-of-day) division based on multidimensional traffic-flow data is proposed in this paper. By analyzing the traffic-flow data of 8, 4, 2, and 1 dimensions commonly used at the intersection, the dynamic Fisher algorithm is used to complete the time segment division of the traffic-flow sequence of different dimensions. On this basis, the preliminary TOD division is completed, and the phase timing and lane-use assignment corresponding to the preliminary time periods are optimized. Then, the adjacent time periods are merged and tested to complete the final result of the TOD division. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, the schemes based on traffic-flow data of different dimensions are carried out by using the data at an actual intersection in Wuhu City, and the total and average vehicle delays of different schemes throughout the day are evaluated by VISSIM. The results show that the more dimensions of traffic flow data are adopted, the more refined the TOD division scheme is, and the less the total delay and average delay at intersections throughout the day are. In particular, the TOD division scheme after further optimizing the lane-use assignment can further reduce the total and average vehicle delay throughout the day. It shows that the method using multidimensional traffic-flow data at an intersection to carry out the integrated optimization of TOD division, lane-use assignment, and phase timing has good applicability.
